A Secret Passion — Sophia Nash

One Proposal Too Many

The word is out that widow Jane Lovering is engaged. The only problem is, she isn't. To escape her father's forceful meddling, she flees to the town of Littlefield. And there she encounters a most disarmingly handsome -- and obnoxiously arrogant -- man.

Rolfe Fitzhugh St. James, the Earl of Graystock, has never met a woman like Miss Lovering. First the delectable beauty mistakes him for a stable hand. Then she outrageously offers her help in training his new stallion. There is only one thing to do with such an audacious woman: marry her! But just as Lord Graystock begins plotting the details of their betrothal, Jane meets up with her childhood sweetheart, who has a marriage proposal of his own.
